Back home again!

We just drove into our driveway in Bloomington Indiana.. today! The trip was great and we did lots of cool things. The coolest is that we stayed on the 2-lane roads all we could, venturing onto 4-laners for only about 100 miles altogether.

The RV worked fine, though we did develop a leak in the water system after a couple of weeks on the road. So, after Texas, we drove on up to the factory in Forest City, IA and they eventually tracked it down and fixed it for us. We met fun people who were also having work done there, and our evenings consisted of pleasant banter and lots of laughs in lawn chairs behind the rigs.

We stayed the night in Terre Haute, IN -- 50 miles from here -- last night, so we’d get here early in the day. That’s my favorite way to do it, keeping us from being overwhelmed in the evening.

It is a beautiful day and we spent all of it getting ourselves sorted out, pulling things out of the RV, putting things away, and doing laundry. We also had to do some stuff to just get the house ready to live in again, like putting sheets on the bed, turning on the hot water...

Pets are doing great. Maddy's first move was to go goony -- running in circles madly around the living room. Eddie very carefully walked from room to room, went under the guestbed for a few minutes, and then came out and was normal again.

I'll be posting pics over the coming days. One will (I hope) be of us and our new car, which we have to go and get tomorrow!

    Glad you are home again in Indiana! We will have to get together as soon as you guys are up for some BBQ and shopping :)

    Nothing new around here. Send me a note, call, something when we can get together.

    Love, Sis.
